[Verse 1] You sit beside me in the neon glow Talking about him like I oughta know How he kisses you slow How he calls you home And I nod like a saint with a steady face While my whole world shakes in this tiny space Every laugh from your lips Feels like a blade with your perfume on it [Pre-Chorus] You don’t see the war behind my eyes I hide it well beneath the streetlight skies [Chorus] ‘Cause you were my temporary heaven A place I could never stay I had your heart for stolen seconds Then watched it drift away Now I’m drinking with your memory Like it’s holy wine You belong to somebody else But part of you still lives in mine [Verse 2] You sent a picture in his jacket sleeves Said, “Ain’t he beautiful?” honestly Yeah, he probably is That’s the hell of it And every message from you hits like smoke Filling my lungs till I nearly choke You say, “You’re such a good friend” That line never fails to kill me again [Pre-Chorus] I should run but I remain Like a moth circling beautiful pain [Chorus] You were my temporary heaven A fire I couldn’t hold Warm enough to keep me breathing Cold enough to leave me froze Now I haunt these empty avenues Where your shadow still survives You belong to somebody else But you’re still the love of my life [Bridge] Maybe in another lifetime You would’ve turned and chosen me But this world wrote us in pencil And erased us quietly [Final Chorus] So I’ll keep your name like thunder Rolling somewhere deep inside A storm that never reaches shore No matter how it tries You were never really mine Still I mourn you every night Yeah, you belong to somebody else… But losing you feels like you died.
